hte,

Yurily Ivanovich NOSENKO

NOSENKO, Yurily Ivanovich, a Soviet
KGB officer who defected -in 1964 and
was subsequintly involuntarily con-
fined in the U.S, by the Agency for

a period of approximately three years,

NOSENKO first contacted Agency per-
sonnel in Switzerland in June 1962

and subsequently defected in January
1964. NOSENKO was brought to the U.S.
and after a period of relative freedon.
he was involuntarily confined in’

April 1964. From April 1964: to

August 1965, he was confined at an
Agency controlled site-in Clinton,
Maryland. From August 1965 to

October 1967, NOSENKO was confined

at Camp Peary, Virginia. . In October
1967, he was returned to the Washington
area, given increasing amounts of
freedom until he was given total free-
dom in April 1969. NOSENKO became a
U.S. citizen in April 1974, - NOSENKO

consultant in March 1969 and continues
under contract to date. His present
Salary is $23,500 per year, .

(1) The legal basis to confine NOSENKO
against his will was discussed by

Mr. Richard Helms, DD/P, and others with
the Deputy Attorney General on 2 April
1964 (Tab 1). On 3 April 1964, the
Agency General Counsel, Mr. Lawrence
Houston, advised the Director of Security
by memorandum that such confinement was
Proper (Tub 2).

(2) There are a serics of letters fron
the DDCI, DCI and others to various
agencies, including the Department of
Justice and the White House, covering
the period 1964 to 1969, evidencing
awareness of these agencies of the
NOSENKO affair (Tab 3),

(3) The conditions of NOSENKO's confine-
ment were established by the Office of
Security (Tabs 4 & 5).

Ry memorandwna dated 2 Octeobcr 1968,
the Director of Security forwarded
two reports to the DDCI summarizing
the results of the NOSENKO case to
that date. The reports are voluminous.
One was prepared by the Office of
Security and the other by the FBI...”
Both reports conclude that-NOSENKO
was a bona fide defector. A draft
memorandum attached to this file,
dated 21 October 1968 and prepared
by the CI Staff, raises question
regarding NOSENKO's bona fides

and challenges the above two reports.

NOSENKO continues under contract to

the Agency. He is brought to Washington
periodically to consult on matters a
germane to his background and experience.
Various reports are availiable in the

files of the Office of Security which

detail financial aspects of this case.

No final accounting has been made since

. the project continues.

(1) While the Office of Security files

‘do document the rationale for the original

confinement of NOSENKO, they do not

confinement over so long a period of time.
A memorandum dated 5 August 1969 states
that various congressional staff officers

were briefed on NOSENKO and states that

concern for his safety, as well as con-
cern reparding his bona fides, prompted |
the prolonged confinement. (See Tab 6)

(2) Office of Security files document
a period in 1969 during which a mail
cover was placed on NOSENKO.

(3) During the above period, NOSENKO

wus allowed a pleasure trip to Florida.

During this trip, Agency personnel, with

apparent Headquarters approval, obtained

the services of prostitutes. This

apparently occurred on at least two :
occasions. :

MEMORANDUN FOR’ RECORD

: SUBJECT: Discussion with Deputy Attorney

_, General on Nosenko Case

. 1. Nr elas, Nr. Houston and Nr. Nurphy met with
the Deputy Attorney General and nenbers of his staff to
discuss subject case. Present frea Mr. Katrenbach's-
staff wera Messrs, Foley, Yeagloy aad Reis.

2. ur. He Ins explained the Nosenko casa briefly

and indicated that shortly we would be faced with what

we at least considered to be two probleas on which we
would like the advice of the Dapartuent of Justice,
First, wo would seoon feel coapelled to begin hostile

interrogation of Nosenke in order to arrive at the truth |

with respect to his mission for the KSB and we wondered

‘what the legal posftion would be in circuwistances in
‘which we datained Nosenko against his will for this pure
. paso. Second, wo would have to be ready after detorain- .

ing “that we could obtain no additional inforuation fros
Nosenko to deport. hin... We had thought of taking hin to :
Germany and transferring hia to Soviet custody in Borlin *
where this has been done a number of tincs in the past,

+" 32 There was sos0 discussion of whether deportation ,
to another country aight be a consideration. Mr. Helms

explained wo would probably face publicity problems in

“deporting to a third country of the kind we would en-

counter if hé were freo in the U. S. Nr. Helms noted

there were zany items of inforsation which we and the

FBI realize are of no significance because of the file
holdings~we have but which an unscrupulous newspaper san
could use to create nischief, This aspect was then dropped
and it was the consensus that Serlin was probably the best

place, _

4. The question of the basis for detention was again
raised and related by Mr. Foloy to the conditions under

cwhich Nosanko is in this country. He is here as an "ox-
clusion and parole case" which seans he bas not been

adaitted and has been parolad to tha Agency which is
responsible for hin while ho is in this country. . This

“parole canbe interpreted to moan parole to a specific

locale which would provide sone justification for our.

detaining hiz for questioning, It was then pointed out,
however, that if he ‘said he wished to leave the country
to raturn to. the. Soviet: Union, technically we would noe

be abla‘ to detain hin further. In this event, we would

be: faced with the. need-to deport hia quickly and quietly
and for this purpose. the ianigration warrant of arrest

“aid deportation. was probably the best instrunent,

Se Ur. Katzeabach asked Mr. Foley to check into:
this and Mr. Foley will in turn contact Nr, Houston.
Mr, Houston will in turn discuss the problem with CIA

their llaisoa wit

Question #3 - Did McCone or Raborn have any information on this:

What? .

Answer:..

Office of Security records contain only limited information
in regard to this question. The SE Division (then SR) was the
responsible office for the confinement of Nosenko until late
October1967 when total -responsibility was transferred to the
Office. of Sccurity by the DCI. It is presumed that the DCI was
Ro . _ at least generally aware of the confinement of Nosenko and the
: ‘ conditions of. confinement, but any definite statement must be
4 - based on SE records. .

Question #4 - Where is Nosenko working now?—

Answer:

Nosenko is currently employed at his personally owned
residence in North Carolina. We is engaged in research and
unalytical work based on his previous knowledge of the KGB -

; and other Soviet matters. He is in the Washington, D. C. area
of for several days approximately every six weeks for direct
interviews by the FBI and Office of Security personnel.

Question #5 - Is he working for CIA?
; 2S) Angwert ,

Nosenko has been employed by the Agency on a-full-time

i contractual basis since 1 March 1969. The original contract

i has been periodically amended to reflect additional remuneration,
primarily to compensate for cost of living increases. In late
19%8, Nosenko was compensated by mutusl agreement for salary :
not received during the 1 April 1964 to 1 March 1969. In addition, ;
on 12 July 1973 Nosenko signed an acknowledgement and release :
of the United States.Government and the Central Intelligence :
Agency from any claims prior to that date.

Question #6 - What is his legal status?

Answer:

Nosenko was naturalized as a United States citizen in
April 1974.

MEMORANDUM FOR: The Inspector General

: SUBJECT : The Nosenko Case

Attached please find a summary of a document written in
1967 to-the General Counsel outlining the Nosenko case and ~
explaining to him actions which had been taken with regard to
Nosenko, . As noted in the first paragraph, in October 1967

’ Nosenko took up residence ‘in the Washington area and was

advised that, should he wish to leave the apartment for any
location whatsoever, he was’ free to so do. In other words,

“from that date, Nosenko was essentially a totally free man.
‘That he chose not to flee in any way may he indicative of his

“attitude toward the manner in which he was handled prior to
October 1967. ; .

While one can criticize the fact that Nosenko was kept
incommunicado for approximately three years, and therefore
presumably denicd full civil rights, the attached document
does indicate, we believe, that the Agency was on the horns

“of a dilemna in this regard. There were legitimate doubts

about, Nosenko's bona fides and concern that he was a Soviet
plant. There. was no Country.to which he could be deported
save the Soviet Union, and Nosenko himself refused to return
there, ‘Yet, in the United States, save when isolated from
society, he was considered to be a continuing threat to
national security.

Recognizing that only legal experts can judge defini-
tively the merits of the case, it seems to the writer that
the Agency had no choice but to hold Nosenko incommunicado
pending resolution of his bona fides, He was admitted to
the United States under the provisions of Section 212 (d) (§)
of the Immigration and Nationality Act, namely as a parolee
to the Agency. As a parolee, Nosenko de facto from the date
of his entry to the United States did not enjoy the full civil
rights of the normal citizen. He wes a ward of the Agency, in
a sense, and the Agency was ultimately responsible for his

conduct. There were at the time very lepitimate reasons: to
believe that full and total release of Nosenko would be an

‘obligation of the accepting country to see to it that the
‘laws are followed. In the Nosenko cause, it sees to us that
the Agency acted in a fully responsible manner to ensure that
its responsibility for the defector was met. While it was
linfortunate that it took so long to resolve the matter, we
can find no fault with the fact that the Agency met its

responsibility to both the United States and to Nosenko

CIA handlers ‘he defected on 4 February. 1964 and was secretly
taken to Frankfurt, Germany, crossing the Swiss - -German border
on the night of 4/5 February with alias U.S, Army identity

\
Because of mounting pressure ‘from the press, which included
much speculation that Nosenko was a high level scientist or
disarmament expert, it was decided that the State Department
would make a brief announcement acknowledging Nosenko's
request for asylum in. the U.S. and identifying him‘as a
member of the KGB. This was done on 10 February. On 11 Feb-
ruary, the Sovict Government delivered a note to the American
Embassy in Moscow asking how Nosenko left Switzerland and
requesting an immediate interview with him and his release.
| On 12 February, Soviet Anibassador to the Disarmament Confer-—
ence TSARAPKIN held a press conference in Geneva in which he
accused- ‘the Swiss Government of failure to cooperate in
; locating Nosenko. Although the Swiss categorically rejected
‘these charges, the American Ambassador to Switzerland recom-
mended that Swiss authorities be allowed to interview Nosenko
to convince themselves that Noseriko had left Switzerland of
his own free will, ,
On 12 February 1964, on the instructions of the Director,
Nosenko was brought to the United States. He travelled by
commercial air, again using alias U.S. Army identification, ~
and was admitted to the country. at New York City (in true
name) on parole under the provisions of Section 212 (d) (5)

of the Immigration and Nationality Act.

On 13 February, representatives of the Swiss and Soviet

‘Embassies in Washington advised the State Departuent that

‘they desired interviews with Nosenko. Gn 14, February, ‘in

Moscow, Soviet Foreign Minister GROMYKO called. in: Ambassador

- KOHLER and protested, "impernissable activities" on the part —

of the, U. s. in Nosenko's casey Soviet press. spokesmen took
an even harder line to Western correspondents, and accused
the U.S. of kidnapping Nosenko, On the afternoon of 14 Sep-
tember, at two separate interviews, he spoke first to Swiss

Embassy and then to Soviet Embassy Tepresentatives, At

‘these interviews, which were also attended by State Department’:

and INS officials, Nosenko confirmed that he left Switzerland

of his own free will’ to seek asylum in the U. s. In addition,
he replied to questions of the Sovict Embassy ‘representative
to the effect that he was renouncing his Soviet citizenship.

On the evening of M4 February, the. U.S, State Department made.
a brief formal reply to the Soviet protest, then issued a
brief statement to the press noting that the interviews had
been held and that Nosenko had confirmed his desire to remain
in this country.

From the time of his arrival to 4 April 1964, Nosenko
was housed in the Washington area, During this period, reg-

ular systematic debriefing was’ commenced, and Nosenko was

made available to representatives of the FBI for debriefing

on matters affecting their responsibilities. Although allowed

out for evening and week-end excursions, Nosenko was ut all
times accompanied by O/S personnel. In addition, he took a
two-week vacation to Hawaii, again accompanied by case offi-
cers and security guards. Evidence continued to motint that :
he was a KGB plant, and at the same time it becanic obvious

that it would be impossible to proceed further to. resolve

the many suspicious points and contradictions that had arisen
without changing the conditions in which he was being held.
Nosenko was growing increasingly uncooperative, especially -
when sensitive areas were touched upon, and constantly pressed’
for the legalization of his status in the U.S. and the issuance
of an alien registration card. .At the same time, Nosenko's
heavy drinking and other unruly personal habits were causing
increasing difficulties to the security personnel charged with
keeping him under control and out of trouble at all times in
accordance with Agency local responsibility. It was clear

that it was only a matter of time before he created a public

scandal, More importantly, he was in a position. to communi-

cate with the KGB since physical control could not be absolute.
On 4 April 1964, Nosenko voluntarily underwent a polygraph

examination. The results of this examination indicated deception:

ary 1963, General Carter reported the defection to an executive
session of USIB and followed this up with formal statements to
USIB members on 12 and 19 February 1964, which stated that -__...
Nosenko's bona fides had not yet been established. It was 3
agreed that no DS number would be issued to Nosenko, and that
he would be handled ona special basis by this Agency. In
fact, norniil USIB interest in Nosenko as a defector dropped
off drastically as it became quickly apparent that he had no.
positive intelligence interest of value to any part of the’
community.

he President was informed of the full extent of our
suspicions ‘about Nosenko's bona fides by the then Director,
ir. Mccone, on 11 February 1964. Nr. Patrick Coyne, Executive
Secretary af the PFIAB, was given a similar briefing by

_ Mr. Hellas on 19 February 1964.

Generals Carroll and Fitch of NIA were also subsequent ly

inforned of the problems about Nosenko's bona fides.

The Secretary of State, Ambassador Thompson, and other:
senior officials in the Department of State were inforined of:
our reservations about Nosenko's bona fides and our fears that
he might be a dispatched KGB agent. In discussions about the
possibility of Nosenko's eventual deportation, the Secretary j
of State expressed serious concern about the adverse reaction |
that such a move night’ have on other potential defectors,

The Director of Security, State Department, was informed
of the bona fides problem at an.carly date. We have worked |
closely with this of fice Since then on the problem of eval-
uating the significance of Nosenko's information as it affects
the security interests of. the State Department.

Because so much of Nosenko's information affected U.S,
internal security matters for which the FBI bears primary
responsibility, and because the possibility that Nosenko was
aoXSz plant had a direct bearing on the validity of certain
FI operations, the FBI was kept fully informed on our views:
about Nosenko's bona fides and our progress in interrogating
aod investigating him from the moment of his defection. The
FEY liaison officer was told of our reservations on Nosenko's-
bona fides as early as 5 February 1964. The Director of the
Fal and his deputy for Internal Security, William Sullivan,

were kept completcly up to date, and we coordinated all major

aspects of our handling Nosenko with them. After a long
meeting with Sullivan and other FBI representatives to review
Nosenso* $ case on = April 1964, the FBI interposed no objec-
tions to our pruposal to restrict Nosenko's movements and
commence hostile interrogation. _ Subsequently, the FBI for--_
mally agreed with our findings - on Nosenko,” at least to the
extent that "On considering carefully the results of your
interreyations of Yuriy Nosenko and your analysis of his

statements and activities, it does appear he is not what he ha

“purports to be. While this Bureau is not in a position to
draw any conclusion in this case, we do recognize it is
‘possible that Nosenko could be a Soviet plant or agent pro-
vocateur,"
Tae then Acting Attorney General Mr. Nicholas Katzenbach

(and several members of his staff) were apprised of our res-
ervations about Nosenko on 2 April 1964 and an opinicn was
sought from him both as to interpretation of the exclusion
“and. perole agreement, and as to how we should proceed in the

event that it proved necessary to deport Nosenko from this

country, .
Efforts to Keep the KGB from Learning of Our Awareness of

Nosenzo’s True Status
nosersa ss fruc status
From the time we learned that Nosenko had been sent to

this country on a KGB mission it was obvious that if we were

to have tne time to analyze and resolve this case, and to.
plan and execute appropriate countermeasures, it was essential
that we attempt to kecp the KGB fron. learning’ of our awareness
of Nosenko's true status. Consequently, detailed know ledge

of ‘the depth and scope of our suspicions about Nosenko, and
the implications thereof, was restricted to a very few people
in the Agency and the intelligence community. Nonetheless,

we did advise key policy echelons. and principals in the intel-

Ligence community, even though this carried the inevitable

_visk of leakage,

Sovict Inspired Inquiries

In 1966 there were several indications that the Soviets

‘were making a serious effort’ to find out what happened to.

Nosenko and to force him to the surface. The most blatant
and unusual of these was the ‘approach by a Soviet journalist,
Yuriy KOROLEV (a known KGB agent), to the French magazine
Paris Match with an offer to provide photographs and materials
for an exclusive story of Nosenko and his family. According
to Korolev, Nosenko's wife was considering an approach to an
international juridicial organization in an effort to obtain
compensation from Nosenko for: damages caused by his abandon-
ment of her and her children. In responding to this approach
we quoted a statement, purporting to be from Nosenko himself,

to the effect that Nosenko considers this approach to repre-

sent blatant and cruel manipulation. of his family by the KGB-

and that he will not lend himself to the scheme by agreeing
to an interview or in any other way.
Nosenko's Status .
To recapitulate, Nosenko entered the United States on
12 February 1964 om parole to the Agency under the Provisions
of Section 212 (d) (5) of the Immigration and Nationality
Act. Parole résponsibility is delegated to the Agency by
the Attorney General under the terms of an agreement executed
by the Attorney General and the ETI on 10 February. 1955,
which states: 7
"After parole of such aliens, the Central Intel-'°
ligence Agency will assume responsibility for
‘care, supervison and control of a kind and
deyree it believes consistent with the internal
security needs of the United States during con-
tinuance of their parole status."
In accordance with our understanding of this agreement, and
because we had reason to believe that Nosenko was a conscious
and willing agent of a hostile intelligence service, we.
ensured that he was under our direct observation and control

at all times from the moment of his arrival in the United

12

States. From 12 February to 4 April 1964 it was possible to
keep Nosenko at a location where he could enjoy a certain
amount of movement and of contact with the outside world,
After 4 April 1964, for reasons explained above, it was
necessary to keep him incommunicado at.a location which is
known to no one outside of the Agency (and to very few within’
it). Authorization for Nosenko to remain in this country
under the Special Agreement Procedures was periodically
extended by the Immigration and Naturalization Service.

Although his freedom of movement had been severely
‘restricted, Nosenko was not maltreated and he made no com-
plaint about his treatment. On the contrary, we had several |
written statements from him in which he stated that our. .
handling of him was justified and even beneficial.
Disposal

From the time that Nosenko was brought to this country
we thought about the possibility of his eventual deportation
asa contingency measure, In early 1964, we thought that it
might be possible to mitigate the political and propaganda
drawbacks of a forced deportation by announcing that Nosenko
has confessed his true KGB role, With the passage of time,
however, and in view of our much firmer conclusions about his

real role and mission and our clearer understanding of what

13

SECRET


14-0000

SECRET

this implied, it was apparent that great practical problems

stood in the way of his deportation to either the USSR or a

’ third country.

USSR: Nosenko has categorically stated on numerous

. occasions that. he will never contemplate return to the USSR,

and, although we Suspect that. he might secretly welcome such,
a move, we would expect him to act out his part to the end
with loud protests that he was being shipped to his death,
etc. When the possibility of expulsion was discussed with
Department of State officials in 1964, both tho. Secretary of
State and Ambassador Thompson expressed their concern for

the adverse effect this might have on other potential defec-

_tors. Forcible repatriation of political refugees is against

long established U.S. policy, and would be certain to arouse
violent reaction from ethnic minority groups in the United
States. Under. these circumstances an alleged “canfession"

by Nosenko would have come under very close scrutiny, and

“might have backfired very badly, Another point that had to

be considered was the possibility that the Soviets, again

playing their part, might have refused to accept Nosenko on

the grounds that he has renounced his Soviet citizenship.
‘Third Country: Although we believed it likely that

Nosenko would accede to deportation to a third country,

there is certainly no country in the free world on which we
‘could conceivably have unloaded Nosenko without first inform-

desirable objective, it seemed certain that the. Department

of State would veto such a a piece of intergovernmental duplic-

Yurily Ivanovich NOSENKO

NOSENKO is a Soviet intelligence officer who defected
in Switzerland in 1964. He was subsequently brought to the
U.s., and after # short period of relative freedom, he was
confli:ed under strict and relatively austere conditions _.
for a peviod of approximately three years. Commencing in
1967, he was viven increasing amounts of freedom until he :

a U.S. citizen, eettled in the Southeastern United States

The strict conditions of NOSENKO'S confinement were

intended to convey. ta him the seriousness of his position

as a suspected disinformation agent und to make clear to hin that

his free settlement in the U.S. was precluded as long as

this issue was unresolved. It was understood, however,

that at any time he could have elected to end his confine-

ment and return to the Soviet Union. OS files do not document

that this latter condition was explicitly conveyed to

NOSENKO, however, it is the recollection of senior staff
officers (ADD/O an

d D/OS) that such was the case, and further
that it was a condition routinely applied to other defectors

whose bona fides were in doubt.

4. Information developed by this Office of possible in-
terest to the Inspector General, pertains to one John Torpats,
an ex-CIA employee, and one Eduard Oun, an Estonian defector.

S.- Torpats was born in 1898 in Estonia, and became a
naturalized U.S. citizen in 1926. Torpats was employed by
CIA in February 1949 and was terminated 30 January 1961. | The
file information reflected that in July 1956, Torpats was found
guilty of mistreatment of an alien by a Special Inquiry Board

application of turpentine and ointments to various parts of
the body, the scrubbing of Qun'ts body witha brush, and fore

interrogations with only very bricf rest periods.

r So
documented as Nikolayev, Under what cover did you travel to those countries? |

What was your Legend-Biography?

Note: Any KGB officer going abroad under another name and under
cover prepares a Legend- Biography to'cover up his real ;
identity, If Nosenko travelled as Nikolayev, then his tegend
omitted "the fact" that he waa a son of a Minister because. .

\ . there was no Ministor of Shipbuilding Industry with the name~

of Nikolayev, ete. etc.)

. 3. You. stated previously that in “January 1960 you were pracessed to go to the

Nosenko: Gribanoy,. the chief of the whale counterintelligence. Ulin name)
Oleg Mikhaylovick Gribanov oe 6 80, Olvg Mikhaylovich Gribanov

Well, what am 1? . ... Who have I reeruitted?., . . Ten Americana,

no more than that. . . (and Gribanov said) "You will go! You must go!"

‘ HI, Sovict visas and other regulations for tourists traveling to the USSR.

| Zz i. Didn't you know or remember how. Oswald's visa was processed and

o from what country Oswald. entered the USSR? Ie it ponsible that he.
entered the USSR on a “podvisnaya" visa?

LY 2, You previously said that you saw Oswald's visa application, but you could

not say from what country Oswald came to the USSR. _in your opinion, is

a) : . .
SR a it. possible. that Oswald received. hie visa ‘application in sorné other European -

country, then went to Finland and through Finland entered the USSR without’
i ; contacting the Soviet consulate in Helsinki? Did you hear any talk about the

po : possibility that is described above?” If so, when did you hear it and from

whom?
uy 3 On 3 July 1964 you stated that you have seen Oswald's anketa (visa
: application), Do you remember what was in that anketa? Did you read
the anketa? What did you mean that. you saw the anketa? Was it in the

naime Lee Harvey Oswalt, or was there another name? Did you sce the

name of the person who signed the anketa?

rd]

4,0 Ve you have any information to the effect that Oawald might sot have

cure to the Soviet consulate or ta the Soviet Minhanay in HMelainks to

oltain his visa? Could he have Qbtained a vin in Switzerland or. Sweden

5
tien aave come to sfeisinki and, without cepocting to the Soviet conaulate

in Helsinki, have taken a teain to Leninpead and then lo Moscuow?:

L 5. According to your previous information, * fany tourist - he buya a tour
to the Soviet Union, makes out the ankela, and then comes to Moscow, "

In what country did Ouwald buy a tour to the USSR? In what country did

’

Oswald fill in the anketa? If the anketa goes to Moscow, to what offlee

in Moscow does it go? To MID, KGB? Is it possible that all the data on

Oswald from his anketa was sent to Moscow bya fable? ‘Did you see and

read Oswald's anketa ora a telegram that Oswald Ig coming to Moscow?

If you did not read the anketa, who among the KGB officers of the Second

Chief Directorate or the First Chief Directorate read the anketa or had

access to it? Who would logically have access to the ankcta?

-6. According to your previous information, any person who wants to visit the

USSR has to buy a tour.in a foreign tourist firm in his home country or any

and the tourist firm’ will make arrangements for ‘his’ ‘stayin

other courtry,

the USSR. It is understood that he must fill in the anketa, and in addition to

the general questions, the common tourist should make requcats for the

cltics he intends to visit and for the accommodations he wants, The tourist

would know i in advance when. he t receives his visa his date of arrival in: *
a

Moscow, in what hotel he ia going to stay, and what kind of accommodations Ses : .

he would be given. The question, then, is do you know when Intourist

received Oswald's request ‘and application and when it answered him that

his dernands are met and that he is welcome {in Moscow?

/ 7% From your knowledge, when Oswald arrived in Moscow, was he handled by

the Intourist Agency or by Sputnik, the Youth Tourist Bureau of the USSR,

‘or by the Central Council for Tourism of the Soviet Trade Unions? °

Note: The Centrat Council for Tourism of the’ Suvfet Trade Unions organizes
exchanges of tourists between trade unions of the USSR and other
countries. Sputnik was organized in June 1958 for the exchange of.
of tourists (students and other youths), .

oo : .
La
eR. What is the procedure after a touriat applies for a Soviet vira? Doe you
know at what touriat apency or in whit forcifn country Oswald applied.
for a visa to the USSR or bought a tour tu the USS? Who was the
Suvict Intourist representative in that country who took Oswald's visa
application to the Soviet Embassy?
“9 You stated previously that Oswald wan not considered a defector, If he
wan nota defector, then what was he?
7 7 ; Note: If the KGB did not consider Oswald to be a defector, then ft is
possible that Oswald was known to the KGB long before his arrival
; in the USSK as a tourist and Oswald was ansured that when he
~ . arrived in the USSR he would be given Soviet citizenship or at... .
least a permanent residence permit, Although he would be a defector
anyway, St could be that Oswald did not like the word defector
‘and the KGB decided not to call him a defector but, let us gay, a
volunteer, The Sovict-Constitution states that the USSR grants the
‘right of asylum to all forcign citizens "uo are persecuted for
‘safeguarding the interests of the working clase or who arc persecuted
for scientific activities, for national-liberation struggle." (Article
129 of the USSR Constitution of 1936.) ’
/ 10, You stated previously that "since about 1960, every Sovict arnbassador———-
. can give a visa in three to five days. If so, what was so special for the
: Sovict government that the ambassador would be personally involved in

iséuing a visa to Oswald?

“Note: “It ig know
to improve travel for foreign tourists in the USSR. They rnostly
concerned currency exchange. The 1957 regulations said nothing
about visas, - Nogenko should be questioned about the 1957 decision
of the Soviet government to determine if he is not mistaking the 1957
decision with that of 1960, .

y ll. You stated previously. that since about 1960, every Soviet ambassador

_can Bive vigas.in from three to five daye. The available information
published by the Soviets unmistakenly states that a visa cannot be obtained

in less than’ seven days (in some cases it takes five to seven days), Following

3 are excerpts froma book entitled Moscow, A Tourists Companion, published _

in Moscow in 1969, and from the magazine Sovict Life, May 1978, 'p- 59.
Soviet Life stated that “visas are issued within 10 days of receipt of

application at a Soviet consulate, "

that in 1957. the Soviet government adopted some measures .

2.. What do you know about Aleksandr Nikiforovich Aksenev? ;

a Note: (a) Aksenov was Deputy Chairman of the KGB of Belorussia
: i _ from 1959 to 1960, It is assumed that when Oswald arrived
: oo in Minsk in January 1960, Aksenov was Deputy Chairman of -
‘of the KGB and would definitely know about the Oswald case.
From 1960 to 1965, Aksenov was MVD Minister of Belorussia. -
Therefore it would be under his direction that Oswald's passport
and the departure of Oswald and Marina from Minsk was
arranged. If Noscnko had access to Oswald's file, he must .
know about Aksenov, From 1965 te 1971, Aksenov was First
Secretary of the Vitebsk Obkom of CP Belorussia, and since
1971, Aksenov has been Second Secretary of the Central
Committee of the Belorussian CP, He has been a member of
the CC CPSU since 1976, and he is also a deputy to the USSR
Supreme. Sovict, On May 9, 1978, Aksenov arrived in Columbia
He headed the Soviet delegation on the invitation of the Columbian
Communist Party. ,

Aksenov with whom, according to Epstein's Look, (page 146) —
ae Marina Oswald had an interview in 196), Aksenoyv in alsa
rocntioned in McMillan's book (pages 132-133). Aksenoyv
allegedly said to Marina. “Tell your husband notte worry. I.
believe your request willbe granted." Also see page 125 of
the same book. :
73. Did you know or know of Avkadiy Denisovich Rudak?

Note: Rudak was Deputy Chairman of the KGB during 1959 to 1960 and
might have taken part in the Oswald case while. Oswald lived
"in Minsk, : ;
4. - Did you know or know of Major General Stepan Alekseyevich Smorodinskiy?
Note: Smorodinskiy was Deputy Chairman of the KGB for Relorussia in
~~ 1962 and most likely know about the Oswald case. His name
would most likely appear in the Oswald file. :
SL- Se. Do ‘you ‘know Lt, General Vasiliy Ivanovich Petrov?’
Note: Petrov was KGL Chairman for Belorussia from 1959 to 1973,
Therefore, it would be his agency, the KGB, which would watch
Oswald in Minsk, It is.safé to assume that after the assassination
of President Kennedy in 1963, Petrov, as Chairman of the KGB
. ‘of Belorussia, would review the Oswald file and eend it to Moscow.
-. He would also have been called to Moscow KGB headquarters to
; - take part in the preparation of the spravka (summary) of the

Nosenko should be asked if Perepelitsyn took any part in the :
: ‘investigation of Oswald. (Perepelitsyn was Deputy Chairman of
: the KGB of the USSR from 1959 to 1967, He. died in Moscow. )
y 7. What part, if any, was played by General Sergey Grigoryevich Bannikov
‘in the Oswald case, especially after the assassination of. President Kennedy? oo
, i a, Note:’ Bannikev was mentioned by Nosenko as one of the Deputy Chiefs of

Note: (a) Accovding to Epstein's book, one Pavel T. Voloshin was an
administrator -at Patrice Lumumba University and was a KGB
officer who accompanied @ group of Russian dancers to Los Angeles
in 1959 at just about the same time that Oswald was making
weekend trips there to get his passport and possibly to make other

Why wan it decided to pay hire 799 cubles a month instead of 500 or
WON” What was your salary ac ae KO officer? Approximately ;

400 cublern a month, new menky? Tantt it (rue that Oswald received

more than you did?

If it was decided by the AGE officers and by Soviet doctors that Oswald: was
abnormal, then why was he perrnitted to marry a Sovict citizen?

Note: According to Soviet law, in every union republic, including
Belorussia, the “rarriage cannot he permilted between persons —
if one of them is prosvunced a mental case or imbecile." ‘

Did you have any information that the Minsk KGB reported to Moscow

headquarters Oswald's intention to marry a Sovict citizen, in this case,

Marina? .

You stated previously that Oswald's file was sent to the Second Directorate

of the Belorussian KGB, Hew do you know that it was sent ‘Specifically .

to the Second Directorate and not to the KGB chairman or his deputy
with a special instruction?

What do you mean "to keep an eye on him" (Oswald)? That, according
to your words, wag the instruction frorn the Seventh Department of the -
Secorid Chief Directorate to the Belorussian Second Directorate of the KGB,

You stated that there was no visible surveillance of Oswald, there waé no .
microphone in his apartment, tut you stated his mail was monitered and -
that there were agents around Oswald in places where ho-worked and liveds.
Explain. how you learned about it. Do you know tha namés of any
agents who reported on Oswald? ir you did not read the file on Oswald, . |
how could you know about it?

Previously you stated that Oswald was handled no differently than any __ el
other American defector, “. ,.. The only difference was that he was not _ _
to he allowed to stay, and he was considered to be abnormal." If this was .
the only difference, and it is quite a big one, then why was he allowed to

stay in the USSR? If Oswald was “not normal" according to the KGB

the Belorussian RGR. . Therefore, the KGB and MND ia Belorussia knew .
about it, Then how and why was Oswald permitted to have a shotgun
_ Which he kept in his aparturent in Minsk?

Do you have any information that while in the USSR, especially ducing:

the year 1960-1961, Oswald hught have been visiting Cuba? 7 \

two months, ; ho |

(33. De you have any comments on the statement made by Marina's uncle,
_ the MVD colonel: "I thought that Alik {Oswald) had not only given up
his American citizenship but had become a citizen of the USSR, " .
Note: The question is that if an MVD colonel thought or could be fooled’

by the KGB that Oswald was a Sovict citizen, it is possible that .—
he really was a citizen or that the KGB spread the rumor that he

was. ee

34. What do you know about Oswald's association with the Foreign Language
Institute in Minsk?
35, To your knowledge, what KGB, GRU, and other intelligence schools
or training courées were in Belorussia during your work with the KGB? —

deputy director of Patrice Lumumba University. (P.D. )

a letter from his friend Ziger in ‘Minsk? Oswald left that fetter at the
American Embassy, - ;

IDENTIFICATION:

BACKGROUND:

APPROVAL H

Yurily Ivanovich NOSENKO

NOSENKO, Yurily Ivanovich, a Soviet
KGR officer who defected -in 1964 and
wis subsequently involuntarily con-
fined in the U.S. by the Agency for

a period of approximately three years.

NOSENKO first contacted Agency per-
sonnel in Switzerland in June 1962
and subsequently defected in January
1964. NOSENKO was brought to the .5.

sand after a period of relative freedom.

he was involuntarily confined in

April 1964. From April 1964 to

August 1965, he was confined at an
Agency controlled site-in Clinton,
Maryland. From August 1965S to

October 1967, NOSENKO was ‘confined

at Camp Peary, Virginia... In October
1967, he was returiied to the Washington
area, given increasing amounts of
freedom until he was piven total free-
dom in April 1969. NOSENKO hecame a
U.S. citizen in April 1974. NOSENKO
was employed by the Agency. as a
consultant in March 1969 and continues
under contract to date. fis present
salary is $23,500 per year. :

(1) The legal basis to confine NOSES KO.
against his will was discussed by

Mr. Richard Helms, DD/P, and others with
the Deputy Attorney General on 2 April
1964 (Tab 1). On 3 April 1964, the
Agency General Counsel, Mr. Lawrence
Houston, advised the Director of Security
hy memorandum that such confinement was
proper (Tab 2).

(2) There are a serics of letters from
the PDCI, DCI and others to various
agencies, including the Department of
Justice and the White House, covering
the period 1964 to 1969, evidencing
awareness of these apencies of the
NOSENKO affair (Tab 3).

(3) The conditions of NOSENKO's confine-
ment were established by the Office of
Security (Tabs 4 & 5).

14-0000

Ky memorandum dated 2 October 1968,
the Director of Security forwarded
two reports to the DDCI summarizing
the results of the NOSENKO case to
that date. The reports are voluminous.
One was prepared by the Office of
Security and the other by the FBI.
Both reports conclude that NOSENKO
was a bona fide defector. A draft
r - memorandum attached to this file,
dated 21 October 1968 and prepared
by the CI Staff, raises question
regarding NOSENKO's bona Cides
und challenges the above two reports.

RESULTS ot

TERMINATION : NOSENKO continues under contract to

: the Agency. He is brought to Washington
periodically to consult on matters
germane to his background and experience.
Various reports are available in the
files of the Office of Sccurity which
detail financial aspects of this case.
No final accounting has been made since
the project continucs.

(1) While the Office of Security files

do document the rationale for the original
confinement of NOSENKO, they do not
document the rationale for his continued
confinement over so long a period of time.
A memorandum dated $S August 1969 states. :
that various congressional staff officers: ~
were briefed on NOSENKO and states that
concern for his safety, as well as con-
cern regarding his bona fides, prompted |
the prolonged confinement. (See Tab 6)

COMMENTS

(2) Office of Security files document
a period in 1969 during which a mail
cover was placed on NOSENKO.

(3) During the above period, NOSENKO

was allowed a pleasure trip to Florida.
During this trip, Agency personnel, with
apparent Headquarters approval, obtained
the services of prostitutes. This
apparently occurred on at least two
occasions.

MEMORANDUN FOR: RECORD

SUBJECT: - Discussion with Deputy Attorney
General on Nosenko Case

J, Ne Helas, Nr. Houston and Nr. Murphy sot with
the Deputy Attorney General and nesbers of his staff to
discuss subject case, Present ftea Xr. Katzenbach's:
staf£ wore Messrs. Foley, Yeagley and Rais.

2.. Mr. Holus explained the Nosenko case briefly
and indicated that shortly we would be faced with what
we at least considered to be two prodlens on which we
would like the advice of the Dopartment of Justice.

‘First, wo would seoon feel coapelled to begin hostile.

interrogation of Nosenko in order to arrive at the truth
with respect to his mission for the KGS and wo wondsred
what the legal position would bo in circwistances in

: which we detained Nosenko against his will for this pure

pose. Second, wo would have to be ready after detorain- .
ing “that we could obtain no additional inforuation fros ©
Nosenko to doport hia... We had thought of taking hin to
Germany and: transferring hia to Soviet custody in Borlin
where this has been done a nunber of tiacs in the past.

: 3. There was soso discussion of whether deportation ~~”
to another country aight be a consideration. Wr. Helus

explained we would probably face publicity probleas ina
deporting to a third country of the kind we would en-
counter if hoe were froo in the U. S. Nr. Helss noted

there were sany itons of inforsatioa which we and the

FBI realizo are of no significance because of the File
holdings.we have but which an unscrupulous newspaper san
could use to creste nischief. This aspect was then dropped
and it was the consensus that Berlin was probably the best

place.

4. The question of the basis for detention was again
raised and related by Mr. Foley to the conditions under
which Nosenko is in this country. We is here as an “oxe
clusion and parole case” which seans he has not been
adatttod and has been parolad to tha Ageacy which is
Tesponsible for hin while ho is in this country. . This

parole can be interproted to moan parole to a specific

‘locale which would provide sone justification for our.

- detaining hina for questioning. It was then pointed out,
however, that if he said he wished to loave the country
to return to. the. Soviet Union, tachnically we would not
be able to detain hin further. In this event, wo would
bo faced with the need to-deport him quickly and quietly

_ and for this purpose. the ianigration warrant of arrest
“and deportation was probably the bost instrument. —

S. Ur. Katzenbach askod Hr, Foley to check into
this and Mr. Foley will in turn contact Nr. Houston.
Mr. Houston will in turn discuss the problen with CIA
Office of Security officidls to get the background of
their liaison with the INS oo theso matters,

6. Mr. Kelwus thanked Mr. Xatzenbach for his assistanco
and we departed amid some jovial bantor with respect to
"The Spy Who Case in From the Cold" about what we expacted
to happen to him when he started to climb aver that “wall”
n Berlin. . .

MEMORANDUM FOR: : Director of Security

Parole Status of Defectors

or 1. On 2 April 1964 we had a discussion with the Department -

» , of Justice or the status of aliens whose inspection by I&NS is deferred
upon arrival at our request and who are then paroled to this Agency. ~
ic was the position of the Department of Justice that we were responsible

‘ _ for taking any action necessary to carry out the terms of the parole,

2.

As you know, a basic parole agreement was executed by the

‘Attorney General and the
conditions for authorizing parole in any one case, the agreement states:

“After parole of such aliens,

DCI on 10 February 1955. After setting up

the Central Intelligence Agency will assume °

* xesponsibility for care, supervision and control of a kind and degrea itt
believes consistent with the internal ‘Security neds of the United States7-
during Continuance of their parole atatus.™” This meana that the
-Tesponsible Agency officials must take the minimum action necessary

+ to protect the internal security needs of the United States. The word
"minimum" is not necessarily a limitation. It merely means that good
judgment must be used as to what kind and degree of action is necessary,”

‘ ;

3. The agreement further provides that upon completion of the
parolee's intelligence or Operational purposes in the United States or if
internal security reasons 30 require, the alien will be removed from
this country through arrangements made by the Agency and, in such’

case, the Agency will inform the

departure,

NOSENKO

Question #1 - Conditions under which Nosenko was held while at.
Clinton? Locked in? Let outside for catertainment?

Prisoner? Treatment?

Answer:

the period of 4 April 1964-13 August 1965, Nosenko

. During
was held in strict confinement under the following conditions:

a. Confinement in single room except for
periods of interrogation,

b. Constantly under guard and subject to 24 hour
visual observation with regular room search.

Dress was coveralls and food was of sufficient

and television were not allowed, newspapers or
any information concerning current events were
forbidden and reading material was extremely

limited.

Question @2 - Conditions at ISOLATION. " Same as above.

. During the period of 13 August 1965 to 25 October 1967,
conditons cited above were basically maintained with the
following additons or changes:

From February 1966 to May 1967, Nosenko was" °° '

War-


14-0000

Question #3 - Did McCone or Raborn have any information on this:
What? _

Answer:

Office of Security records contain only Limited information
in regard to this question. The SE Division (then SR) was the
responsible office for the confinement of Nosenko until late
October 1967 when total responsibility was trunsferred to the
Office of Security by the DCI. [t is presumed that the DCI :was

“at least generally aware of the confinement of Nosenko and: the
- conditions of confinement, but any definite statement must be

based on SE records.

Question #4 - Where is Nosenko working now?

- Answer:

Nosenko is currently employed at his personally owned
residence in North Carolina. We is engaged in research and
analytical work based on his previous knowledge of the KGB
and other Soviet matters. He is in the Washington, D. C. area
for several days approximately every six weeks for direct
intervicws by the FBI.and Office of Sccurity personnel.

Question #5 - Is he working for CIA?

Answer:

Nosenko has been employed by the Agency on a full-time
contractual basis since 1 March 1969. The original contract
has been periodically amended to reflect additional remuneration
primarily to compensate for cost of living increases. ..:In,.late,
1973, Nosenko was compensated by mutual agreement for salary
not received during the 1 April 1964 to 1 Murch 1969. In audition,
on 12 July 1973 Nosenko signed an acknowledgement and release :
of the United States Covernment and the Central Intelligence

Agency from any claims prior to that date.

Question #6 - What is his legal status?

Answer:

Nosenko was naturalized as a United States citizen in
April 1974.

SECHET.

MEMORANDUM FOR: The Inspector General

SUBJECT : The Nosenko Case

Attached please find a summary of a document written in

1967 tothe General Counsel outlining the Nosenko case and
explaining to him actions which had been taken with regard to...
Nosenko. As noted in the first paragraph, in October 1967
Nosenko took up residence in the Washington area and was
advised that, should he wish to leave the apartment for any

__tocation whatsoever, he was free to so do. In other words,
“from that date, Nosenko was essentially a totally free man.
‘That he chose not to flee in any way may be indicative of his
uttitude toward the manner in which he was handled prior to
October 1967. ;

While one can criticize the fact that Nosenko was kept
incommunicado for approximately three years, and therefore
presumably denicd full civil rights, the attached document
does indicate, we believe, that the Agency was on the horns
of a dilemna in this regard. There were lcgitimate doubts
about. Nosenko's bona fides and concern that he was a Soviet
plant. There. was no country to which he could be deported
save the Soviet Union, and Nosenko himself refused to return

there. “Yet, in the United States, save when isolated from ;

society, he was considered to be a continuing threat -to
national security. - ; : mo, _

Recognizing that only legal experts can judge defini-

. tively the merits of the case, it seems to the writer that

- the Agency had. no choice but to hold ‘Nosenko incommunicado
pending resolution of his bona fides. He was admitted to
the United States under the provisions of Section 212 (d) (S)
of the Immigration and Nationality Act, namely as a parolee
to the Agency. As a parolee, Nosenko de facto from the date
of his entry to the United States did not enjoy the full civil
rights of the normal citizen. He was a ward of the Agency, in
a sense, and the Agency was ultimately responsible for his

abrogation by the

. 4 .
conduct. There were at the time very legitimate reasons to
believe that full and total release of Nosenko would be an
Agency of its legal responsibility. To

gtinsay that decision in retrospect is, we believe, an crror.

,In sum, the act of defection places the defector at the mercy
of the laws of the country to which he defects. It is,th :

Obligation of the accepting country to see to it that the
laws ‘are followed. In the Nosenko cause, it secns to us that
the Agency acted in a fully responsible manner to ensure that:
its responsibility for the defector was met. While it was.
unfortunate that it took so long to resolve the matter, we
can find no fault with the fact that the Agency met its
responsibility to both the United States and to Nosenko

himself,

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: Yuriy Svanovich NOSENKO

Me

; In early or mid-1967, the Agency General Counsel was

‘provided a Summary of the Nosenko case. ‘The nesorandum

sought an advisory opinion from the General Counsel on the

”

Agency's legal basis for its handling of Nosenko through

that date and on the legal aspects on the eventual disposi-

tion of Nosenko. Shortly subsequent to this gsessrandum to
the General Counsel, Nosenko took up residence in October 1967
in an apartment in the Washington area and was reminded that
should he wish, he could travel freely anywhere at anytime.

He gradually Created a new life for himself in the United

States and has indicated on several Occasions that he holds

no ill feeling about his handling by the Agency at anyti e.

Background

Nosenko voluntarily established contact with CIA repre-

sentatives in Geneva in 1962. He identified himself as a

staff officer of the KGB's internal security directorate and
offered to sell counterintelligence informatien. This offer

Was accepted and he was recruited as an agent in place and

debricfed on counterintelligence matters during five mectings ~

in Geneva. He then returned to the USSR. He cane’ to Geneva

again in January 1964 as the security officer for the Soviet

disarmament delegation, After a number of meetings with his
CIA handlers he defected on 4 February 1964 and was secretly
taken to.Frankfurt, Germany, crossing the Swiss-German border’

on the night of 4/5 February with alias U.S. Army identity

documents. In Geneva and again upon arrival in Frankfurt,
Nosenko wrote out’ an asylum request, requesting political
asylum from the U.S. Government. .

Because serious doubts about Nosenko's bona fides had
arisen on the basis of the information he had provided both
in 1962 and in the meetings in Geneva in 1964, it was orig-
inally planned to do a detailed bona fides debriefing and

assessment in Germany before making any decision about m

Nosenko to the United States. However, unprecedented action
by -the Soviet Government in respect to the defection of one
a

of its Citizens forced a change of plans. On 9 February,

unidentified Soviet sources in Geneva leaked the news to the

Press that Nosenko, described as an “expert attached to the
Soviet Delegation to the Disarmament Conference" had dis-

appeared, and that it was presumed that he had defected.

Because of mounting pressure ‘from the press, which included

much speculation that Nosenko was a high level scientist or

disarmament expert, it was decided that the State Department
would make a brief announcement acknowledging Nosenko's*
request for asylum in. the U.S. and identifying him as a
member of the KGB. this was done on 10 February. On 11 Feb-
ruary, the Sovict Government delivered a note to.the American
Embassy in Moscow asking how Nosenko left Switzerland and
requesting an immediate interview with him and his release.
On 12 February, Soviet Ambassador to the Disarmament Confer-
ence TSARAPKIN held a press conference in Geneva in which he
‘ . accused the Swiss Government of failure to cooperate in
locating Nosenko. Although the Swiss categorically rejected

these charges, -the American Ambassador to Switzerland recom-

mended that Swiss authorities be allowed to interview Nosenko..

to convince themselves that Nosenko had left Switzerland of

his own free will. ’

On 12 February 1964, on the instructions of the Director,
Nosenko was brought to the United States. He travelled by
commercial air, again using alias U.S. Army identification,
and was admitted to the country. at New York City (in true
name) on parole under the provisions of Section 212 (d) (5)

of the Immigration and Nationality Act.

On 13 February, representatives of the Swiss and Soviet

Embassies in Washington advised the State Departirent that
‘they desired interviews with Nosenko. Gn 14. February, “in
Moscow, Soviet Foreign Minister GROMYKO called id Ambassador
“KOHLER and protested “impermissable activities" on the part
of the U.S. in Nosenko's case. Soviet press spokesmen took
an even harder line to Western correspondents, and accused
the U.S. of kidnapping Nosenko. On the afternoon of 14 Sep-
tember, at two separate interviews, he spoke first to Swiss
Embassy and then to Soviet Embassy representatives. At
these interviews, which were also attended by State Department
and INS officials, Nosenko confirmed that he left Switzerland

of his own free will to seek asylum in the U.S. In addition,

he replied to questions of the Soviet Embassy representative

_to the effect that he was renouncing his Soviet -citicenship. °
On the evening of 14 February, the.U.S. State Department made
a brief formal reply to the Soviet protest, then issued a
brief statement to the press noting that the interviews had
been held and that Nosenko had confirmed his desire to remain
in this country.

From the time of his arrival to 4 April 1964, Nosenko
was housed in the Washington. area. During this period, reg-

ular systematic debriefing was conmenced, and Nosenko was

made available to representatives of the FBT for debriefing

on matters affecting their responsibilities. Although allowed

out for cvening and week-end excursions, Nosenko was at all

times accompanied by 0/S personnel. In addition, he took..a-i-.
two-weck vacation to Hawaii, again accompanied by cause offi-
cers and security guards. Evidence continued to motint that
he was a KGB plant, and at the same time it became obvious”
that it would be impossible to proceed _further, to. resolve
the many suspicious points and contradictions that had arisen
without changing the conditions in which he was’ being held.
Nosenko was growing increasingly uncooperative, especially
when sensitive areas were touched upon, and constantly pressed”
for the legalization of his status in the U.S. and the issuance
of an alien registration card, At the same time, Nosenko's
heuvy drinking and other unruly personal habits were causing
increasing difficulties to the security personnel charged with
keeping him under control and out of trouble at all times in
accordance with Agency local responsibility. Tt was clear
that it was only a matter of time before he created a public.

cate with the KGB since physical control could not be absolute.

en anumber of critical points indicating that ‘he wits sent

‘by the KGB to perform one or more missions which also involved

his penetration of the Agency and its. operations. It was
decided, therefore, that the physical circumstances of Nosenko's
stay in this country would have to be drastically changed if
the Agency were to carry out its counterintel Ligence responsi-
bilities and adhere to the terms of the parole agreement. As
a cesult, he was moved to quarters where his. movements could
be more easily controlled, and his outing Privileges were
suspended pending resolution of bona fides.
It is worth noting thut had we not taken the above action
but accepted Nosenko at face value, it is quite possible that
we would have proceeded with a series of operational actions
ea the basis of his information. The results of some of these
actions could have been very embarrassing to the U.S. Govérnnient
politically and damaging to U.S. national security. For exam-
pie, his chief operational proposal at the time, and one that
he was most insistent that we should proceed with immediately,
involved the compromise of a very senior Soviet official.
Beginning in April 1964, hundreds of hours were devoted
to interrogations of Nosenko (in which he willingly cooperated)

The President was informed of the full extent of our

The Seceretary of State, Ambassador Thompson, and other
senjor officials in, the Department of State were inforned of:
our reservations about Nosenko's bona fides and our fears that
he might be a dispatched KGB agent. In discussions about the
possibility of Nosenko's eventual deportation, the Secretary =
of State expressed scrious concern about the adverse resection |
that such a move might have on other potential defectors.

The Director of Security, State Department, was informed
of the bona fides problem at an carly date. We have worked
closely with this office since then on the problem of eval-
uating the -ignificance of Nosenko's information as it affects
the security interests of the State Department.

Because so much of Nosenko's information affected U.S,

internal security matters for which the FBI bears primary

responsibility, and because the possibility that Nosenko was.
a XGB plant had a direct bearing on the validity of certain.
F2I operations, the FBI was kept fully informed on our views
about Nosenko's bona fides and ‘our progress in interrogating |
and investigating him from the moment of his defection. The

FEY liaison officer was told of our reservations on Nosenko's
bona fides as carly as S February 1964. The Director of the
F321 and his deputy for Internal Security, William Sullivan,

were kept completely up to date, and we coordinated all major

aspects of our handling Nosenko with them. After a long
meeting with Sullivan and other FBI representatives to review

Nosezeo's case on 1 April 1964, the FRI interposed no objec-

tions to our proposal to restrict Nosenko‘s mavements.and ..

commence hostile interrogation. Subsequently, the. FBI for- r
mally agreed with our findings on Nosenko, at least to the
extest that "On considering carefully the results of your
interrczations of Yuriy Nosenko and your analysis of nis
statements and activities, it does appear he is not what he
purports to be. While this Bureau is not in 4 position to |
draw any conclusion in this case, we do recognize it is
possile that Nosenko could be a Soviet plant or agent pro-
vocateur,*

The then Acting Attorney General Mr. Nicholas Katzenbach

(and several members of his staff) were apprised of our res-

ervations about Nosenko on 2 April 1964 and an opinion was’

sougst from him both as to interpretation of the exclusion

and pzrole agreement, and as to. how we should proceed in the

event that it proved necessary to deport Nosenko from this

country.

iftorts to Keep the KGR from Learning of Our Awareness of

Nosenau's True Status
From the time we learned that Nosenko had been sent to

this country on a AGR mission it was obvious that if we were


14-0000

SECALT |

to have the time to analyze and resolve this case, and to
plan and execute appropriate countermeasures, it was essential
that we attempt to kecp the KGB fron learning of our awareness
of Nosenko's true status. Consequently, detailed know ledge

of the depth and scope of our suspicions about Nosenko, and
the implications thereof, was restricted tu a very few people
in the Agency and the. intelligence community. Nonetheless,

we did advise key policy echelons. and principals in the intel-

. ligence community, even though this carried the inevitable

risk of leakage.

Soviet Inspired Inquiries
In 1966 there were several indications that the Soviets
were making a scrious effort to find out what happened to

Nosenko and to force him to the surface. The most blatant

and unusual of these was the approach by a Soviet journalist,

Yuriy KOROLEV (a known KGB agent), to the French magazine
Paris Match with an offer to provide photographs and matcrials
for an exclusive story of Nosenko and his family. According
to Korolev, Nosenko's wife was considering an approach to an
international juridicial organization in an effort to obtain
compensation from Nosenko for damages caused by his abandon-
ment of her and her children. In responding to this approach

we quoted a statement, purporting to be from Nosenko himself,

“al

SECRET


14-0000

SECKET

to the effect that Nosenko considers this approach to repre-
sent blatant and cruel manipulation of his family by the KGB -

and that he will not lend himself to the scheme by agreeing
to an interview or in any other way. ,
Nosenko's Status

To recapitulate, Nosenko entered the United States on
12 February 1964 on parole to the Agency under the provisions —
of Section 212 (d) (5) of the Immigration and Nationality
Act, Parole responsibility is delegated to the Agency by

the Attorney Gencral under the terms of an agreement executed

by the Attorney General and the £71 on 10 February 1955,

which states:
“After parole of such aliens, the Central Intel-

ligence Agency will assume responsibility for

care, supervison and control of a kind and

degree it believes consistent with the internal” "~~
security needs of the United States during con-
“tinuance of their parole status."
In accordance with our understanding of this agreement, and
because we had reason to believe that Nosenko was a conscious
and willing agent of a hostile intelligence service, we
ensured that he was under our direct observation and control

at all times from the moment of his arrival in the United

12

14-0000

SECRET

States. From 12 February to 4 April 1964 it was possible to
keep Nosenko at a location where he could enjoy a certain
amount of movement and ‘of contact with the outside world.
Agter 4 April 1964, for reasons explained above, it was.
necessary to keep him incommunicado atua location which is
known to no one outside of the Agency (and to very few within
it). Authorization for Nosenko to remain in this country
under the Special Agreement Procedures was periodically
extended by the Immigration and Naturalization Service.

Although his freedom of movement had been severely
restricted, Nosenko was not maltreated and he made no com-
plaint about his treatment. On the contrary, we had several
written statements from him in which he stated that our
handling of him was justified and even beneficial.

Disposal

From the time that Nosenko was brought to this country

os we thought about the possibility of his eventual deportation

‘. as a contingency measure, In carly 1964, we thought that it.
might be possible to mitigate the political and propaganda |
drawbacks of a forced deportation by announcing that Nosenko
has confessed his true KGB role. With the passage of time,

however, and in view of our much firmer conclusions about his

real role and mission and our clearer understanding of what

13 , wie.

SECRET


14-0000

SEGRET

this implied, it was apparent that great practical problems
stood in the way of his deportation to either the USSR or a
third country.

USSR: Nosenko has categorically stated on numerous. - :.
occasions that he will never contemplate return to the USSR,
and, although we suspect that he might secretly welcome such

a move, we would expect him to act out his part to the end

with loud protests that he wus being shipped to his death,
etc. When the possibility of expulsion was discussed with
Department of State officials in 1964, both the Secretary of
State and Ambassador Thompson expressed their concern for
the adverse effect this might have on other potential defec-
tors. Forcible repatriation of political refugees is against

long established U.S. policy, and would be certain to arouse

violent reaction from cthnic minority groups in the United
States. Under these circumstances an alleged "confession"
by Nos enko would have come under very close scrutiny, and
might have backfired very badly. Another point that had ‘to
be considered was the possibility that the Soviets, again
playing their part, might have refused to accept Noscnko on
the grounds that he has renounced his Soviet citizenship.
Third Country: Although we believed’ it likely that

Nosenko would accede to deportation to a third country,

14

‘SECRET


14-0000

Sethe RET

there is certainly no country in the free world on which we

euld conceivably have unloaded Nosenko without first inform-

oo, ing them of his true status. Even if we considered this a

desirable objective, it seemed certain that the Department _

or State would veto such a piece “of intergovernmental duplic-

ity on the basis of the political risks involved.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Inspector General
ATTENTION i Mr. Neil Ainslic
VIA : Deputy Director for Administration
SUBJECT : Alleged Illegal Activities

(Unidentified Subject--Alleged Abuse
of Defector)

1. Reference is made to Mr. Ainslie's verbal request
for a review of Office of Security files in an effort to
provide information pertinent to a case mentioned on page
170 of the Report to the President by the Commission on CIA
activities within the United States...

2. The case in question from page 170 of the Commission
Report is quoted as follows: “In one other case, a defector
was physically abused, although not seriously injured, The
Director of Central Intelligence discharged the employee in-

volved." -

3. A search of Office of Security file resources has
reflected ‘information pertinent to a case in which a defector
was physically abused at an overseas location, and the Agency
employee was later terminated by the DCI. It is not known
whether the following case is identical to the referenced
case on page 170 of the Commission Report, but the facts
appear to be quite similar.

y this Office of possible in-
John Torpats,
an defector.

4, Information developed b
terest to the Inspector General, pertains to one
an ex-CIA employee, and one Eduard Oun, an Estoni

5. Torpats was born in 1998 in Estonia, and became a
naturalized U.S. citizen in 1926. Torpats was employed by
CIA in February 1949 and was terminated 30 January 1961. ° The
file information reflected that in July 1956, Torpats was found
guilty of mistreatment of an alien by a Special Inquiry Board

in Frankfurt, West Germany. The alien involved was Eduard
Oun, an Estonian who defected from Estonia through Sweden
in 1955, :

6. The incident in Frankfurt involved Histreatment of

‘Oun during interrogations directed by Torpats. The charges

of physical abuse included the striking of Oun with the fist;
application of turpentine and ointments to various parts of
the body, the scrubbing of Oun's body with a brush, and forc-
ing Oun to stand in the nude as long as eight days during
interrogations with only very bricf rest periods.

7. Torpats was returned to Hcadquarters and was brought
before an Employment Review Board for consideration of scepara-
tion from the Agency. The Board's recommendations initially
were that Torpats be “transferred to an area outside the
Clandestine Services." Torpats appealed the decision, and a
later recommendation included reduction in grade from GS-14
to GS-13, Torpats later received unsatisfactory fitness re-
ports and engeged in various "in house" battles with Agency

officials concerning his employment.

8. Torpats was later terminated in accordince with the
authority granted the DCI under Section 1O2(C) of the National
Security Act of 1947, as ammended, effective 30 January 1961,
Later in 1961, Torpats filed suit against the DCI contesting
his dismissal, and the U.S. District Court for the District of
Columbia granted the government's motion for summary judgment
against Torpats. Torpats appealed the decision, and the U.S.
Court of Appeals, in 1962, upheld the lower court's ruling
that Torpats' termination was legal.

9. The Office of Security file of Eduard Oun contained
little information other than interrogation reports dated 1956.
It was not clear from file information whether Oun entered the
United States after the Frankfurt incident. The most recent
document contained in the Oun file was dated 17 September
1956 and noted that Oun had been psychiatrically examined and
found qualified for Agency sponsored immigration to the U.S.
under Public Law 203.

10. It is noted that Office of Security files contained
only fragmentary information in regard to certain areas of the
Torpats' case.. File review indicated, however, the DDO, OGC
and the Inspector General's office will probably have addition-
al information concerning this matter.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD

Review Staff:
23 June 1975

SUBJECT: Rockefeller Commission Contact

Mason Cargill told me today that the reference
in the Commission report to an employee who was fired

because he abused a defector came

from a deposition by

Dick Helms: Helms could not remember an exact name,
gave on his deposition,

but from the description which he
it is clear that the employee who

was fired was John

Torpats. He was discharged by Allen W. Dulles in 1960.

Torpats, himself a Lithuanian refugee, was working

in the Defector Reception Center i

n Frankfort, Germany.

In the course of interrogating another Lithuanian
defector, Torpats beat him. After Torpats was fired,

he sued the Director (then MecCone)

MEMORANDUM FOR: Inspector General
SUBJECT : Request For Information

The Rockefeller Commission Report (Pg. 170)
says the DCI fired an employee for abusing a de-
fector. Can you uncover the details on this in-|
cident? Is it the only such domestic incident
known to us? (John Waller says the DDO has no
knowledge of “any piece of paper" sent to the
Commission on the reported incident or of any
others. He suggests checking Office of Security)

MEMORANDUM FOR: Mr. Garrison

SUBJECT 3 Information on Detention of Defector. ;

1. The Deputy General Counsel has requested documents
bearing on the decision to confine a defector, particularly the
considerations at the time such decisions were made and
reviewed, as may be reflected in memoranda for the record,
ata(f etudies, etc,, leading to the initial confinement, the
later decisions to continve that confinement, the decision to
move to a new facility in Virginis, and eventually to release

him.
2. The assumption {s that following the Initial decision

this matter was reviewed formally from tline te time, and that
those reviews are reflacted ln some way in the records of the

Agency.
